I can't imagine any bird I taxidermied would look that good in my first 20 tries.

NICE WORK.

Post by: frazihunt on June 27, 2012, 10:35:58 AM: Jackmaster- This was a senior Project for highschool. I went to naches which is outside of Yakima so most of the community is into hunting and that type of stuff.

Post by: hunting4sanity on June 27, 2012, 10:54:03 AM: Very nice! Are those all birds you got? If so I'm very jealous - I guess I'm jealous of someone no matter what.

Post by: jackmaster on June 27, 2012, 12:18:25 PM: damn frazihunt, i would say you got a hell of a carrer ahead of you mountn birds and such, it looks like you really pay attention to detail even at this short stage in your career, my son goes to school over here in graham at graham/kapowsin highschool, i doubt they will get to do cool senior projects like what you have done, great job kid, i am sure we will see you around.

Looks good. How much time did you have wrapped into doing them?

Well over all i had about 70 hours wrapped into these birds. it was hard to find time to get around to everything with sports but when i did i would try and prep two birds in one day by skinning, fleching, and all that good stuff so that way the next day i could come back and just put the molds in, sew them up, and position them how i wanted.
